“A violent, sensual, immersive theatrical experience”

“Ophelos” is an original performance piece by Taproot Ensemble told through movement, masques, music and shadow. It tells of a young woman who struggles against the destructive cycle of violence to save the man she loves from succumbing to a culture of vengeance.

It is designed to give the audience a performance experience which breaks down the fourth wall, with action taking place throughout the space. Based on the Scandinavian folk tale of “Amleth” with text from Shakespeare’s “Hamlet,” Ophelos transcends time using Shakespearean language, 1930s inspired costuming, original music, modern dance techniques and a unique understanding of multidisciplinary performance.

Taproot is a collaborative performance ensemble working to build community and create innovative cross-disciplinary performance experiences through artistic collaboration that speaks truth and challenges audiences.
piece.

The “Ophelos” tour of Mecklenburg county was made possible by a grant from The Arts and Science Council
